Comptoirs then re-distributed parts to unique watchmakers, again functioning of their properties, for closing assembly. These final assembled replica watches ended up then returned for the comptoirs, who then dispersed them available for purchase. This was the "etablissage" process. AgassizLongines was started in 1832. Founder Auguste Agassiz was properly trained in business enterprise and worked to get a time from the banking industry. In 1832, he and two associates, Henri Raiguel and Florian Morel (who were brothers in law) elected to launch their own individual watchmaking enterprise like a comptoir from the town of Saint-Imier.

In these early times of watchmaking, common actions experienced cylinder escapements and were wound with keys. Nonetheless, Francillon determined from the key-wound mechanism and beginning in 1867, manufactured only replica watches wound by means of the crown. And it had been in 1867 that Francillon introduced in Jaques David to aid put into practice the industrialization which Francillon was so intent on pursuing. David was set in cost from the operation with the new factory the machines and mechanical techniques. Eventually, 1867 was also the calendar year Raiguel Jeune Cie.

In 1876, Francillon sent a delegation headed by David towards the Worlds Good in Philadelphia, there, they saw just what the American watchmaking business experienced performed with manufacturing unit production. The delegation introduced home numerous strategies which were being implemented during the new factory. In 1880, Longines experienced established adequate output capability to move away from its movement suppliers and make all of its movements in-house.
